The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Re: really rough first draft of release announcement

I'm not really the person to work on this, I never actually ran into the
epochs problem myself and I don't know any of the details. I'll just pass 
the ball to Dale.

Dale, my idea is that since people need to upgrade dpkg, etc before doing
the main upgrade, it'd be simpler and less intimidating to new users to 
make a "pre-upgrade" script that does the dpkg upgrade, the --clear-avail,
and the other steps neccessary. Instead of listing all the steps in our
readme and announcement, we just tell people to run the script.

I think Guy already has the list of commands that need to be in the script,
all that remains in placing it somewhere on the ftp site and cd image and
modifying the documentation to mention it.
